Thomas Edison State College Upper level Accounting Credit - HELP! - DeterminedStudent - 09-09-2014
Hello!
I have been looking at the Internet for a while now to try and find inexpensive ways to finish my degree in accounting. I have taken classes at 4 different universities and 1 community college and am very close to actually having my diploma. I wanted the advice of what I see as alternative degree experts. I want to thank everyone on here for actually giving me the idea and structure to finish my degree in ways that I could never have imagined. I am maxed out when it comes to student loans and finances so I need ideas of fast and inexpensive ways to finish my last 21 credits.
Listed below.
Business Communications 3 (Straighterline)
Computer Literacy 3
Intermediate Accounting II 3 (Penn Foster)
Cost Accounting 3 (Penn Foster)
Income Tax Accounting I 3
Income Tax Accounting I 3
Auditing 3
I listed in parenthesis my plan for some of the classes above, but the classes that I am having trouble with are the 3 upper level accounting courses. Is there any way to receive credit for these that will transfer into ACE credit? I am willing to substitute any of these classes to make the road easier to a TESC degree in accounting. I am also not sure what to take for the computer literacy course.
Your help is GREATLY appreciated. Again I couldn't have come this far without the knowledge of everyone on here.

Saylor has NCCRS-accredited Corporate Communication and Intro to Computer Science for just the ProctorU fees.
Also, Penn Foster has Intermediate Accounting I and II as currently ACE-approved courses.

The Federal Income Taxation TECEP is UL. You'll probably have to take auditing somewhere else. Louisiana State University Independent Study is a popular option for UL accounting courses.

Straighterline's Managerial Accounting counts as ACC-303, UL credit with TESC. Exams are open book and builds on Accounting II.

The course through Straighterline will transfer as Cost Accounting so I'm pretty sure it will duplicate if you take the Penn Foster class too. Just an FYI!!
Also, I'm taking Auditing from Adams State University. Business Courses - Distance Learning - Extended Studies - Adams State University

Thanks for all the replies - I actually am in the process of taking Intermediate Accounting II and Cost Accounting through Penn Foster so I have those pretty much out of the way. I will register next month for Straighterline for Business Communications. I just really need ways to get credit for 3 upper level accounting courses as well as the computer class.
Thanks again.

Perfect - The auditing course is exactly what I was referring to. The price is great - how is the class. Is it anything like Penn Foster?
Thanks!

Okay, sorry, I should have clarified that I haven't taken the course yet, but I'm planning on taking it to fulfill my auditing requirement. Also, make sure you note the course for $495 is a print based course. The online, open enrollment course is $600. Here's the syllabuses....
